Man, I been a gym rat for such a long time and seen transformation just in months before a big National level event. The competitive level of those gyms prepping people for National competitions can amaze ONLY people that never been in bodybuilding competition as a competitor or an internet bodybuilder. You see people taking what they have to plus the aforementioned factors and boom you have transformations that you sometimes get amaze about it. There are many examples like the kid you posted that NEVER get into the eyes of the online community, because they don't have the exposure to online resources.
If that kid is your friend you stand by him by your friendship but be more objective to assure that nobody else can get there...

People can be amazed of how much you can progress in 1 or 2 years of proper training, nutrition and supplementation.

This example is not because this kid has superior genetics but for what I described.

I do not agree with you at all.
I've known and seen plenty of guys with more dedication than most genetically gifted pros, that ate, trained and took all the supplements in the world (basically lived and breathed BB) and yet they had no where near the progression you see Regan Grimes has had. So yeah genetics is alpha and omega.

At Regan’s latest competition he took 1st place in junior bodybuilding plus 1st in men's bodybuilding in the heavyweight class and the 1st place men's overall at the Luchka/OBrien Classic bodybuilding and fitness show in Mississauga, Ontario.

This kid is probably canadas own version of Cody Montgomery!

I don't know many people who literally started out using steroids as a newb. That changes everything.

Yes, I agree you would see many changes like that and more if it were even normal for the average guy to start training AND using steroids within the first two years of training.
